Bottom line
Feedback Sports’ Scorpion is a single-bike floor stand for models with hollow crank spindles. It’s compatible with 10, 13, 18, and 20mm cranks, thanks to the included sleeves. Owners praise the low weight and portability. Experts appreciate that it doubles as a light-duty work stand by allowing most bikes a full pedal rotation. Unfortunately, complaints are frequent. Owners cite broken joining bolts and sleeve pins after a short time using the product. Handlebars also need to be strapped to ensure stability. While many buyers are satisfied with the Scorpion, reports of broken components should give buyers pause, especially given the price.BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy.
